History

The area was settled by lumberman Murdock Andress in 1863, and a hotel was built in 1869. A post office named Wilson opened on March 29, 1872. It was renamed Eastport on September 8, 1873. The community became a popular shipping area along the east coast Grand Traverse Bay and the northern shores of Torch Lake. The name Eastport was derived from its eastern location along the bay, which was directly across the bay from Northport.

The community of Eastport was listed as a newly-organized census-designated place for the 2010 census, meaning it now has officially defined boundaries and population statistics for the first time.
